I recently received a set of carbon wheels from another seller (sinfong) that I connected with on alibaba. I ordered the 38mm carbon rims with aluminum braking surface paired with Pillar 1422 spokes, red anodized Powerway hubs (which I'm pretty sure are the same hubs that Yishun uses only hers are branded as Chosen). The build quality looks good from an asthetic standpoint and the set is 1600 grams. I'm actually going to try to sell these because I wish I'd ordered the full carbon clinchers instead. Here's some shots of the set I received.

I'll admit that I was skeptical about buying something from some unknown seller overseas. But I spent about 7 months emailing back and forth to the seller requesting price quotes for diff't builds and what not. The seller was always pretty responsive to my requests and there was also a group buy for a similiar build on the bikeforums.net site that left me feeling as if it wasn't too much of a gamble to go after something like this.

I bought some months ago 38mm carbon wheelset from yishun ( yishunstefano@gmail.com )
I've tested and used in a lot of race, and I can tell you that are very good for the price.
They are well built, have very good hubs and they are lighter than other prducts that often costs double the price. Before buying i ask in other forums and I realize that a lot of people are buying from this company...

wow why did these wheels pop up so late? why didn't anyone bring them up earlier? $430 for a carbon clincher, 1600g, good (unknown?) quality, 1600g/set.

Does anyone have anymore info on the rim/spokes brand? how do they compare to DT Comp/Champion spokes? Would these carbon rims be better/worse than something like the BWW Blackset Race rim?

They were obviously trying to hold out on you.

The Blackset Race are alloy first, so it is difficult to compare.

I guess if you went with the 20mm carbon clinchers (assuming they are available), they'd probably be lighter than the Blacksets, but I doubt they'd be as durable. With the carbon wheels you can get a deeper profile at a lower weight compared to alloy, but carbon clinchers are relatively new and frankly, I'd be leary of their durability and engineering. Maybe that means I'm missing out on a great deal. I'll take that chance. The tubulars look pretty appealing to me though.

All our carbon wheels are manufactured in accordance with international quality standard. With high quality products and the professional and trustable service, we have won a high reputation among customers.

Because we have our own factory, so we can give you the best price.
